Hello,

I don't really know if I am pushing there, looks like a trap. If he is some kind of good player then he should respect our UTG raise and just fold bad hands. So I think I am folding here.

Best regards,
Rensu

I might call it and play small ball poker but push is ok also. Btw, how big are blinds?

against unknown I'm going broke with AK here, a min3bet could be done with KK+ but since I don't know it I think push is good.

against unknown i think i will push this hand too.
you can not fd to this small raise you just getting far too good odds.
so if you think he is a very tight player or you saw him doing this with very strong hands, you MIGHT just call and then check/fold if you dont hit on the flop.
but beeing OOP i think i would shove this one too.

against this kind of player i would go broke here.

but your preflop raise is a bit too much. 600 would be good eough i the bb is @ 200

I would have raised to 500 or 600 preflop. Despite his minreraise, I think you can still get in as AK is just a good enough hand to get in in basically all situations. However, if you made it 500 and he made it 800, you could just call and try to play postflop, although playing it that way will lose you the hand more often, you wont get stacked very often either.
